One of Southport’s most historic hotels is undergoing a £1million renovation.
Front Foot Hospitality, the management company behind the Royal Clifton Hotel, is completing a major refurbishment of all the bedrooms and public areas.
The work began Monday, January 15 and is scheduled to be completed in mid-April. It is being carried out floor by floor starting at level three down to ground level, with the firm opting to use local companies from the North West for the works, including a Southport carpet company.
After the installation of high speed Wi-Fi throughout the hotel, state of the art Property Management system (PMS) and new boiler, the owners say have already improved brand scores through our partners Best Western.
The iconic building built in 1885 was last updated 34 years ago by the previous owners. The current owners bought the hotel in 2015 and over the past two years have invested significantly in ‘back of house’ areas.
The Royal Clifton Hotel will upgrade to become ‘Best Western Plus’ standard in Spring 2018 and the new rooms will offer our customers a new guest experience.
Michelle Jackson, the hotel’s general manager, said: “Southport locals have a strong loyal connection with the hotel, and it will be fantastic to share our new look with them all. Our Team is understandably very excited and we are looking forward to building on our local relationships and developing new ones within our national and global customer base.”
Best Western Royal Clifton Hotel and Spa is centrally located on the Promenade in Southport with free parking and a few minutes walk from Southport station.
